added comment inDemo 1 - Shade a Sphere - Untimed (Unnarrated)
I feel like this is an improvement on my previous one. Focusing on the contour line helped. Not sure about the highlight though.

Hey there! Here is my submission. This was a cool project, especially since I’ve been wanted to sink my teeth into shading and light.
Overall, I think I did okay. The two main things I struggled with are 1) continuing the shadow in a way that communicates it going around the form (I feel as thought it feels a bit flat) and 2) placing my highlight in a way that doesn’t feel misplaced.
Thank you in advance for any feedfack!

Call back to the cross contour lesson in the last section. Maybe try sketching a few spheres and find the cross contour lines, drawing all the way through, to help you get a feel for the shape. That should help you place your shadow.

Did these before watching the demo. You were right. This was an fun exercise. Very therapeutic.
I think one thing I might struggle with is getting caught up in the details. I can feel myself getting particular on the second study about where the cows' legs are and the different shadows between them.

I really liked this assignment. I was trying to do my best to make sure there weren’t telltale signs of an immediate switch to a different value, but the lighter values were difficult.

Did the hammer. And I felt solid on the top view, but bottom view was very difficult.
I was listening to critiques and I may have an issue with perspective, but also with technicality. I tend to rush things and get impatient with the planning process. Does anyone have advice on how to be better at this?

Tough assignment. I kind of agree that imagining boxes was a little harder. I still had trouble with #18 and how to twist it. Specifically on how to do the side plane. Any tips on future situations where I might encounter similar twisting?

That was really fun to go through. I'm been having trouble to gestures, so I'm hoping this helps me figure things out more.

I did the first three before watching the demo, and then the last three after watching the demo. I really enjoyed the exercise. One thing I'm concerned about is if I am losing the gesture with details. I can figure out the gesture line, but I don't know if my shapes look dynamic enough.

I did the demo animals, as well as other animals. For some of them, I need to look into simplifying shapes more and not just doing random shapes.
